This book was released on 2004 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'âge constitue le premier facteur risque de survenue d'accident vasculaire cérébral (AVC), avec un taux qui double quel que soit le sexe après 55 ans pour chaque décennie. Et si il est également un marqueur de moins bon pronostic fonctionnel avec un déficit résiduel plus fréquent et plus lourd, il constitue surtout un facteur de moins bon pronostic vital avec un risque de décès à 6 mois, 15 fois plus élevé à 80 ans qu'à 65 ans ou moins. L'objectif initial de cette étude était de décrire et analyser les taux de mortalité en post AVC à 7 jours, 1 mois, 3 mois et 6 mois de 2 cohortes de 36 patients chacune, âgé de 80 ans et plus, victimes d'un premier AVC constitué, et hospitalisés dans le département de Gériatrie du CHU de Bordeaux de manière consécutive. La première cohorte de 36 patients a été repertoriée, de mai 2001à mai 2002, pour une pré-étude servant à définir les bases et les objectifs d'un PHRC sur le "devenir fonctionnel des sujets âgés (>=80 ans) après un premier accident vasculaire cérébral" dont le promoteur est le CHU de Bordeaux. La deuxième cohorte est constituée des 36 premiers patients recrutés pour ce PHRC, sur le centre investigateur de Bordeaux, pour la période allant de août 2003à août 2004. Chaque population est constituée de 27 femmes et de 9 hommes, avec un handicap préexistant comparable, mais d'âge moyen significativement différent avec dans le premier cas 89,7 ans (+- 5.1) contre 84,4 ans (+-11.7) dans le deuxième. Les patients présentent également un état de vigilance plus grave avec respectivement un score de Glasgow à 11.42 (+-3.2) versus 12.83 (+-3.5). De plus le taux de mortalité à 6 mois est de 61% dans le premier échantillon contre 36% pour le deuxième. Nous nous sommes alors attachés à comparer ces deux cohortes, et nous avons remarqué que si les deux populations de départ sont significativement différentes, ce sont en revanche les mêmes patients qui décèdent et au même âge (l'âge moyen de décès n'est pas significativement différent avec dans le premier cas 90,4 ans +- 4.9 versus 87.6 ans +-4.5). Plus de la moitié des décès surviennent durant le premier mois (64% des décès pour le premier groupe contre 53% pour le deuxième) et quasiment 50% du total des décès sont dues à des complications infectieuses (46,1 % versus 53,3%). 75 % des décès des patients victimes d'un AVC ischémique est le fait des TACI dans la première cohorte contre 55% dans la deuxième. 70% des décédés ont un déficit moteur jugé majeur à la phase aiguë et la totalité ont des troubles vesico-spinctériens et ce quel que soit le groupe. De même on ne retrouve pas de différence significative entre l'Index de Barthel à J

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Objectifs : caractériser cette population sur le plan médical et social, déterminer les facteurs prédictifs de décès, le pronostic fonctionnel et les lieux de vie à court terme et à 6 mois. Méthodes : étude prospective sur 67 patients hospitalisés au centre hospitalier de Valenciennes. Résultats : L’âge moyen était de 85.1 ans avec une nette prépondérance féminine. Le facteur de risque le plus souvent retrouvé était l’HTA (75 %). Plus les patients étaient âgés, plus l’état clinique initial était grave et les complications fréquentes. Les patients les plus âgés bénéficiaient moins des examens complémentaires et des progrès thérapeutiques, n’avaient pas accès à la rééducation. L’étude retrouvait 16 % de décès à la phase aiguë et 33 % de décès à 6 mois. Les facteurs de risque significatifs de décès à la phase aiguë étaient la gravité clinique initiale (NIH>10) et l’existence de complications. A 6 mois, l’âge supérieur à 90 ans devenait facteur de risque de décès. 45 % des patients vivant initialement au domicile y vivaient toujours 6 mois après l’AVC. Concernant la dépendance fonctionnelle à 6 mois, le seul facteur de risque significatif était l’existence d’une démence préalable. Conclusion : Le pronostic vital et fonctionnel de ces patients n’était pas aussi défavorable que ce qui est communément admis. L’âge ne doit pas un critère limitant la prise en charge. Des outils d’aide à la décision pourraient guider cette prise en charge.

This book was released on 2014-02-26 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le terme promotion de la santé en Afrique, près de 30 ans après l'adoption de la Charte d'Ottawa, continue d'avoir des connotations complètement hors du sens que lui confère cette charte. Cela n'est pas étonnant quand on sait que la notion de santé dans ce contexte africain équivaut à la lutte contre la maladie à travers les soins de santé dispensés par des professionnels de la santé dans des formations sanitaires et les hôpitaux. L'évolution que connait le continent depuis quelques décennies est de donner un peu plus de place à la communauté à travers les relais communautaires dans une participation communautaire vidée de son contenu, car le pouvoir n'est jamais passé entre les mains des communautés.C'est au vu de tout ceci que le présent ouvrage à sa raison d'être pour expliquer les fondements de l'autonomisation communautaire et de la promotion de la santé avec leur importance pour la région africaine en proie aux mauvais indicateurs de santé comparativement aux autres régions du monde.
Book Synopsis Antiplatelet Agents by : Paolo Gresele

Book excerpt: Antiplatelet therapy is the cornerstone of treatment of ischemic cardiovascular disease and over the last few years spectacular advancements in this field have been recorded. This is the first comprehensive handbook entirely dedicated to all the aspects of antiplatelet therapy. The book is divided into three main sections, pathophysiology, pharmacology and therapy, for a total of 23 chapters. A large group of leading experts from different European countries and from the USA, both from academia and industry, have contributed to the book. Besides a detailed overview on the pharmacology and clinical applications of all the currently used or of the novel antiplatelet agents, innovative approaches (e.g. intracellular signalling as an antiplatelet target, small RNAs as platelet therapeutics, etc.) or unconventional aspects (e.g. pharmacologic modulation of the inflammatory action of platelets are also treated. The book is oriented to both basic investigators and to clinicians involved with research on platelet inhibition or with the clinical use of antiplatelet therapies.

Book Synopsis Strategies to Reduce Sodium Intake in the United States by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book Strategies to Reduce Sodium Intake in the United States written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2010-11-14 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reducing the intake of sodium is an important public health goal for Americans. Since the 1970s, an array of public health interventions and national dietary guidelines has sought to reduce sodium intake. However, the U.S. population still consumes more sodium than is recommended, placing individuals at risk for diseases related to elevated blood pressure. Strategies to Reduce Sodium Intake in the United States evaluates and makes recommendations about strategies that could be implemented to reduce dietary sodium intake to levels recommended by the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. The book reviews past and ongoing efforts to reduce the sodium content of the food supply and to motivate consumers to change behavior. Based on past lessons learned, the book makes recommendations for future initiatives. It is an excellent resource for federal and state public health officials, the processed food and food service industries, health care professionals, consumer advocacy groups, and academic researchers.
Book Synopsis Handbook of Psychiatry in Palliative Medicine by : Harvey Max Chochinov
Download or read book Handbook of Psychiatry in Palliative Medicine written by Harvey Max Chochinov and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 591 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychiatric, or psychosocial, palliative care has transformed palliative medicine. Palliation that neglects psychosocial dimensions of patient and family experience fails to meet contemporary standards of comprehensive palliative care. While a focus on somatic issues has sometimes overshadowed attention to psychological, existential, and spiritual end-of-life challenges, the past decade has seen an all encompassing, multi-disciplinary approach to care for the dying take hold. Written by internationally known psychiatry and palliative care experts, the Handbook of Psychiatry in Palliative Medicine is an essential reference for all providers of palliative care, including psychiatrists, psychologists, mental health counselors, oncologists, hospice workers, and social workers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is with great pleasure that I write this Foreword to the Proceedings of the International Conference on Behçet’s Disease which was held in Berlin in June 2002. This was the first International Conference held under the auspices of the International Society for Behçet’s Disease which was founded in 2000 in Seoul. First, I congratulate our colleagues in Berlin, led by Professor Christos Zouboulis of the Department of Dermatology at the Free University of Berlin, for having organised a most successful conference and for having compiled these proceedings so rapidly. It will be realised immediately on scanning the contents of this book that the conference was truly international with 210 participants from 26 countries, as Professor Zouboulis has noted in his preface. These included basic scientists, epidemiologists, pathologists, clinicians and, importantly, representatives from patient organisations. The latter held their own conference alongside the scientific-medical conference to mutual benefit. The combined session of patients and doctors (abstracts on pp 601 – 626) gave the opportunity for an exchange of information and fruitful discussion. The wide ranging scope of the communications is evident from the index and it was most encouraging to see their origin – from all parts of the world, from senior and junior colleagues and, from many different disciplines. Many communications may be regarded as preliminary reports of research in progress and we look forward to seeing the definitive publications in appropriate journals in due course.
Book Synopsis Ocular Vascular Occlusive Disorders by : Sohan Singh Hayreh
Download or read book Ocular Vascular Occlusive Disorders written by Sohan Singh Hayreh and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-02-18 with total page 863 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive account of the pathogenesis, clinical features, and management of ocular vascular occlusive disorders, with the focus very much on the scientific evidence. This offers a sound basis for addressing the many controversies that surround these disorders, which collectively constitute the most common cause of visual impairment or blindness. The book is divided into two sections, the first of which addresses the basic science and encompasses vascular anatomy, blood supply and flow, and retinal tolerance time to acute ischemia. The second, clinical, section covers the presentation, clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of the full range of vascular occlusive disorders of the retina, the choroid, the anterior segment of the eye, ophthalmic manifestations of carotid artery disease and the optic nerve. Ocular Vascular Occlusive Disorders, written by a distinguished world leader in the field, will be invaluable for general ophthalmologists, and particularly for retina specialists, neuro-ophthalmologists, and researchers.
